Since 2022, mOat has put out a string of releases featuring remixes from the likes of Âme, Gerd Janson, DJ Tennis & more. Comprising two established English producers from opposite ends of dance music, the project is a product of the pandemic, where isolation in the Balearics led to a new creative pairing and direction. Now, the shadowy duo enters the studio with Hotflush boss Scuba - following the recent release of his hardcore-inflected Digital Underground mixtape - one of contemporary electronic music's most vital figures as a label owner/A&R, promoter, podcaster, and, of course, multigenre artist, also tapping French singer/songwriter Soshy for her original vocals on "Seamstress."
The title track "Seamstress" cuts deep. The clipped drums give off Mood II Swing energy while dusty early 20th-century string samples ride an undulating sine-wave bassline and a heady spoken word vocal from Soshy washes across the whole intoxicating affair. "Cee Parkin" on the virtual flip provides a weighty counterpoint to "Seamstress." A swaggering, robust rhythm track underpins a vocal, string-laden piano house cut that favors contemporary dancefloor punch over nostalgia.
